A person was killed Thursday in a fire at a Yolo County RV park, said Woodland Fire Department officials.

The fire was at a park in Guinda, about 30 miles northeast of Woodland. Woodland fire investigators joined members of the Sacramento-Sierra Arson Task Force at the scene to find clues into the deadly blaze, Woodland fire officials said.

Photos from officials at the scene show the gutted RV, destroyed by the fire, as investigators sifted through the debris.

Woodland fire officials said there were no immediate signs of foul play, but said fire investigators were working in conjunction with Yolo County Sheriff’s Office to determine what caused the blaze.
